It feels like hours have gone by as he awaits on the twoleg bridge, his bushy tail swishing nervously. They're going to be okay, He thinks to himself as he thinks about Smokestar and Moonpaw; whom disappeared into the burning moors with the WindClanner leading the way. He tries to stop his paws from trembling as he watches the fire from the bridge; the flames continue to consume the grassy field... the sky growing more and more dark with smoke. RiverClan should be safe from this blaze, in thanks to the river— protecting them from the hungry flames. His olive green eyes scan the moors before him, gasping as a silhouette of cats emerge from the smoke. They're here, He feels relief in his chest as the party of cats approach the twoleg bridge. Foxtail can't make out the WindClan scent over the smokey scent that clings to their fur, but he can tell these are WindClan's vulnerable members. Injured warriors, queens & kits, and elders. He dips his head to his leader and medicine cat apprentice, before dipping his head to the WindClanners.
"I-I'm pleased to see all of you made it," He speaks up, attempting to quell his shaking paws as he looks upon the WindClan cats. They must be exhausted... racing away from their beloved camp with dense, black smoke in the air. He can't imagine RiverClan territory on fire; he can't even begin to imagine WindClan's horror as that fire began to spread. Don't let Smokestar down, He quickly reminds himself, as he straightens his posture, his tail raised high. "All of you must follow m-me!" He mews as loud as he can, before gesturing the WindClanners to follow with his tail. "I'll lead you to safety within RiverClan!"
Eventually, his paws step into the beech copse; a thicket of beech trees with a spacious clearing in the middle. This would be perfect shelter for the WindClan cats, until it's safe for them to return to WindClan territory. That was some quick thinking from Smokestar; there was really no time to lose with the verge of WindClan camp engulfing in flames. He beckons the WindClanners to pad into the spacious clearing, speaking up. "You're now safe within RiverClan! This will be your shelter until your territory is safe a-again." His eyes briefly glance over at Smokestar and Moonpaw, as he wonders if either cat have anything to add on.
